On the 23rd August, we were proud to hold our first ever Inky Dinky sponsored ride.
One of our clients came to us wanting to raise money for charity and said that there is a lack of organised events specifically for kids on ponies up to the age of 5. Allowing children to feel confident and enjoy riding horses on our kids’ saddles is one of our passions, so we were keen to help out in any way we could.
A sponsored ride meant that not only could the little ones get out and about on their Inky Dinky Saddles, but we could also raise some serious money for charity!
With no big kids charging around it was very peaceful and enjoyable with families walking their toddlers around the grounds of Bilsington Manor, through the woods, fields, up and down the hills on a Teddy bear hunt. It was great to see so many happy little horse riders on their children’s saddles!
The young Inky Dinky riders raised over £17,634 for the Kent and Sussex Air Ambulance!
Future Events
Because of this success, at Inky Dinky Saddles we are setting up a foundation to help disabled children below the age of 16 and their families to help get out and enjoy the outdoors, whether that be through sport such as riding or just getting to enjoy the outdoor environment.
We are happy and excited to announce that we will be running sponsored rides around the country next year, so everyone can get to enjoy them!
